Today's Match Sponsor £2 The Official Match Day Programme of Chasetown Football Club Chasetown v Basford United Tuesday 22nd September 2020 SCHOLARS The Match Day Sponsors – John Short & Son Chasetown Members Club Northern Premier League Division 1 South East Swanny’s Scribbles Good afternoon and welcome to The Scholars Ground for this evening's FA Cup tie. We extend a warm welcome to everyone associated with Basford United. We go into the game still trying to find the right balance to our performances. We are only too aware that the early games of the season can be a little disjointed but we cannot hide how disappointed we were in our second half performance on Saturday. I felt that the first 35 minutes of the game looked like a performance that I expect from a Chasetown team. Good quality, high tempo, aggressive in and out of possession and I thought we were well worthy of our 2-0 lead. Their goal just before half time was the start of the slump in performance and typified our second half display. The initial corner was conceded by a nervous, apprehensive challenge which led to the ball going out and then for two mishit shots to deceive a number of our players who were closing the ball down was disastrous. I expect my players to be far braver to protect the goal and challenge properly. Ultimately it was that goal that changed the balance of play. Our inability to defend a long straight ball in the second half was a real eye opener. First and foremost in this league you have to be prepared to compete and the number of balls that bounced in our final third was a concern and eventually led to Frickley scoring their second and third goals. We huffed and puffed and credit to the lads for creating some good chances with Langy and Cooky hitting the crossbar but I still feel that would have papered over the cracks. I am an honest man, and an honest manager. Without tearing the lads to pieces I will always tell them when it is good, but also when it is not. The defensive display in the second half was not! I must stress that this is down to the whole unit and not just the back four and goalkeeper. The fact that we have tonight's game so soon is a positive as it gives us a chance to address things right away. There were a lot of good things that happened in our opening two fixtures against Kidsgrove and Frickley, but as I mentioned at the start of this piece, we have to find the right balance in our performances and make sure we can maintain a high standard of focus, concentration and performance level for 90+ minutes. If we do this, I am confident we will pick up more positive results than we do defeats. We will have to this evening in order for us to compete with a strong Basford side and it is a test that we are all looking forward to. Enjoy the game!

Promoted to the Northern Premier League, Premier Division for the season 2018-19 the team adapted well to the new challenge and finished a very respectable 6th place in our debut season at this level. The club have this preseason appointed ex Nottingham Forest legend Steve Chettle as 1st team Manager and Head of Basford United Football Academy. Basford United FC are collectively working towards the objectives of Step 1 National League Football by 2022-23 and Football League by 2025-26 and are backed by our ambitious Chairman. Expanding on our recent history which has been staggering; In 2017-18 Basford were promoted following an emphatic Northern Premier League Division One South campaign, winning the championship, recording a century of points gained and goals scored. One of Nottingham’s oldest established football clubs, with a history stretching back to 1900, Basford have had a very established existence. Our current Chairman Chris Munroe joined the club in 2007 as manager and oversaw the 1st team for 3 years until handing over the reigns to Darren Saunders, with Chris Munroe taking over as Chairman. For the 2010-11 season the club achieved promotion from the Notts Senior League entering the National League System by joining the Step 7 Central Midlands League South Division. The stay in the Central Midlands League was short as tin 2011-12 Basford United won the League and Floodlit Cup in their first season to earn promotion to the Step 6 East Midlands Counties League for 2012-13. Basford stormed through the EMCL, winning the league at their first attempt with a record points total and becoming the first club to do the league and cup double. Whilst in the EMCL, Basford also entered the FA Vase for the first time, reaching the Second Round where they went down 5-3 away to AFC Rushden & Diamonds in front of a near 600 crowd. Success in the EMCL saw the club promoted to Step 5 for 2013-14. Basford debut at Step 5 of the NLS was in the Northern Counties East League Premier Division. Basford United - History A creditable fifth place finish in a season that also saw Basford’s return to the FA Cup after a long absence under the guidance of Martin Carruthers who was appointed manager during this campaign. Basford were then laterally moved sideways into the newly formed Midland Football League Premier Division for 2014-15, a move the club took in its stride winning the league at the 1st time of asking. Earning promotion into Step 4 into the Northern Premier League South for season 2015-16, which was the sixth successive season that the club have played in a new league, surely some sort of record. Basford proved more than equal to the challenge by finishing their first NPL season in fourth place, losing to eventual promotion winners Coalville Town in the play- offs. Some consolation was gained by winning the Notts FA Senior Cup for the second successive season. 2016-17 Basford finished 6th missing out on the playoffs by 1 point, this then led to promotion in 2017-18 as mentioned above. Under the watch and investment of Chairman Chris Munroe the clubs home facility, that prior to 2011 was an open field, now represents a state of the Art Football Facility fit offering prospects for further expansion with over £3.0M worth of investment over this period. The major investment over this period occurred during 2016 with a £750k investment backed by a £500k Football Foundation Stadia Improvement Grant. This comprised a complete redesign of the existing football stadia and a state of art 4G Artificial surface replacing the previous sloping grass pitch. Alongside this investment came an irrigation water extraction system allowing a pitch sprinkler system to be installed as part of the 3G installation. The installation of the new 3G corresponded with the formation of our Basford United Football Educational Academy. The Educational Academy have mirrored the achievements of the 1st team winning the National League U19 Midland Division. 2018-19 season saw the group make it to the National Final on the National League, losing to South Shields Academy on Penalties in the final. Former Basford players who have gone on to play professionally include Bert Bowery (Nottingham Forest), Chris Freestone (Middlesbrough, Northampton, Hartlepool), Will Hoskins (Brighton), Shaun Derry (Notts County, Sheffield Utd, Leeds Utd, QPR) and Paul Cox (Notts County). More recently Kirmari Smith (Sheffield United), Colby Bishop (Accrington Stanley) and Kole Lambert (Norwich City), have all graduated from our Football Educational Academy. Basford United – Pen Pics Kieran Preston: He was Basford’s number one for last season, playing 38 times, keeping 10 clean sheets in the process, and will be looking to keep that spot this season. The former Scotland under-21 international signed for the club from fellow NPL side Grantham Town in 2018 after spells at Derby County and Bristol Rovers. Jordan Pierrepont: The 20-year old was a summer recruit from Heanor Town where he kept 11 clean sheets. The youngster has featured for NPL side Matlock Town as a 17-year old and also had a spell at Chesterfield FC. Stefan Galinski: The former Grantham Town captain is Basford’s vice-captain and spent time at Hednesford Town, Stalybridge Celtic and Alfreton. Last season he was an ever present in the heart of Steve Chettle’s back line making 38 appearances and chipping in with two goals up the other end of the pitch. Charlie Gatter: Another of Chettle’s summer additions. He joins the club from Hednesford Town, where he previously partnered Stefan Galinski at the heart of their back line. The 22-year old is well known to Basford boss Steve Chettle after the pair spent time at Nottingham Forest’s academy together when Gatter was an apprentice at the Championship side.

We extend a warm welcome to the management, players and directors from Frickley and hope they enjoy our hospitality. It is nice to be back in competitive action after what has been the longest and most uncertain pre- season I hope we ever have to endure. Pre-season, whilst extended and tough, was also very enjoyable and we feel that the squad is in good shape to embark on the new season. I think this showed somewhat in last Saturdays FA Cup victory against Kidsgrove. The game itself was somewhat scrappy, but I was pleased that we competed well and showed resilience at times to stay in the game until we could find a breakthrough. We know that we won't always be able to play a brand of football that is as pleasing on the eye as some of the pre-season games were, and we know just how relentless and unforgiving this league is, but it is all about getting positive results so I was delighted to get a win last week. It will be great to officially welcome our new additions to Chasetown as we go into our first home league fixture. We believe that the recruitment over the summer has been good and we look forward to the new players really helping us to push on with what was already a very good squad.

    £2 The Official Match Day Programme of Chasetown Football Club Chasetown v Kidsgrove Athletic Tuesday 6th October 2020 SCHOLARS The Match Day Sponsors – Crown Highways Chasetown Members Club Northern Premier League Division 1 South East Swanny’s Scribbles Good evening and welcome to The Scholars Ground for tonight's visit of Kidsgrove Athletic. We extend a warm welcome to the management, players and directors from Kidsgrove and hope they enjoy our hospitality. First and foremost I have to start by saying how immensely proud I am of our whole squad in how we performed against Telford on Saturday. Every player must hold their heads high as I thought that they were excellent and the better side over the 90 minutes than a National League side. Personally, I like the fact that ties now go straight to penalties but unfortunately that also means that inevitably someone has to miss. Oli was brave enough to take one and more importantly, he is a strong enough character to put it behind him. He has been superb for us so far this season. Now it is time to concentrate on what is our bread and butter, the league! Cup runs are nice but our primary focus has always been the league. We know that we are coming up against a very strong Kidsgrove side with a lot of quality throughout their squad so we will have to make sure our own performance levels are bang at it this evening. I believe that Kidsgrove will be one of the sides in the promotion conversation at the end of the season, so regardless of the stage in the season, this becomes a huge game.

  • Basford United Have Not Made the Start to the Season I Am Sure They Were Looking for Having Lost Both Games to Date
    LANCASTER CITY FC Giant Axe, West Road, Lancaster Lancashire LA1 5PE Telephone & Fax: 01524 382238 Email: [email protected] Website: www.lancastercityfc.com Welcome . WWWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WWWWWWWELCOME Good afternoon and welcome to our opening home Northern Premier League game against Bas- ford United. We would like to extend a warm welcome to their Players, officials and supporters along with the match officials and hope they enjoy their visit. The midweek FA Cup tie proved to be a tense affair and I am sure none of us anticipated it ending up with a penalty shoot out. Whilst out performance was below par, credit should also go to Runcorn who were competitive throughout and could have secured a win themselves. The game also saw a visit from the police to check on our Covid safety procedures which high- lighted a few issues which has resulted in extra precautions being implemented. It is important that we all follow the regulations in place if we are to continue operating as we are now. The draw for the next round has paired us with another North West Counties side, Skelmersdale United which gives us a great opportunity to progress further although we will almost certainly need a better performance than Tuesday to progress Basford United have not made the start to the season I am sure they were looking for having lost both games to date. An opening league fixture against Warrington Town is always going to be a tough start but they will have been extremely disappointed to have gone out of the FA Cup at Chasetown in midweek.
